Happy 1000th post. Hope you can enjoy Sunday and banish thoughts of next week looming. How is your sister doing now? Much better I hope.
Still got loads of washing to get through here! Weather looks a bit off too. Never mind, better get on to the cleaning. I need to become a Hollywood A lister then I can just stay on Capri!
Hope you are ok too Keith. I know weekends can seem a bit quiet.
My sister is doing so well, we went for a walk yesterday and she felt ok. Itās only been since Thursday that she has got her appetite back and she is ravenous! We sat out in the garden on Thursday with Heelie as it was lovely and sunny, since then it has been overcast and drizzly. I hope everyone is doing ok?
yes thanks you ? still trying to tick off a job a day or jobs. Not much help in life is there ?

The work never stops does it ? and feels daunting at the same time. The things to do, my mum used to say if you go looking for work then you find it and she wasnāt wrong. Itās nice to see improvement though. Hospital have me pencilled in for my Stem Cell Transplant for 4th November now, so looks like they bought it forward from December. Not sure if thatās down to my response from treatment being better then they expected ? Saw my consultant on Monday gone and she did seem really pleased with my progress so far.
Oh thatās really good, Iām pleased itās going well.
No, the jobs never stop as you say.
Iām ok thanks, out fir my birthday today although I have been working. Do you have any weekend plans?
Happy Birthday for today, probably listen to the football tomorrow. I belong to a spiritual group on FB so probably take part in the Saturday video link. I still got stuff I been putting off in the flat. Thatās a continuous battle and I think they want me in my Stem Cell Transplant for 4th November. I presume you enjoyed your holiday ? I didnāt post because I didnāt want to intervene between you and Malcolm sometimes they can come across as private chats on here.
Hi Keith,
Thanks for the birthday wishes. @Malcolm and I have shared a couple of photos we didnāt want on a completely public chat, but not hiding from you. We still want to know how you are getting on, and for us all to support each other.
Yes my holiday was lovely thanks, beautiful views, blue seas and skies but lots of greenery too because they get a lot of rain. Seems a long way away now! But I really appreciated being anle to get away.
Glad youāve got some things planned, especially contacts with various people.
Feel like Iām facing a constant battle with tidying the house lol!
We wouldnāt have minded you joining in. Iām glad that your stem cell has been brought forward and your consultant is pleased with you, itās made the bad days worthwhile
Not looking forward to the Stem Cell though, scary stuff!
Youāll be on a mountain of drugs which will make you feel great!
I can underdtand your being nervous, though I donāt know what it entails. Im sure they will look after you though.
They will, but doesnāt make it any easier. Not thought about it too much to be honest. I know itās coming up. I will need a Hickman line inserting, and it most likely be a bit more intense then what I gone through so far.

Donāt feel like doing much today, took me ages to get up and get dressed. Didnāt really care, but did get a lot of sleep last night. Checked phone and peeked into other peopleās lives via social media. I guess Iām in my own little world today!
Did you join your Facebook spiritual group yesterday?
Iām pretty lazy on a Sunday and got my best nightās sleep in ages. Wouldnt mind repeating that again!
The weather hereās quite blustery and cold, not very tempting for venturing out for a walk
I did but didnāt get a message, not that I want a message every week. Sometimes itās just interesting watching a meduim work. I think yesterdayās medium was from Canada, I found the whole concept interesting. I think to me itās important because of Myeloma too, I had a lot of running around to do when mum passed. Mum never wanted to deal with her death when she was alive. So I had to organize so much! I would like to believe thereās something bigger and more powerful then us Life on this planet is all about money and very little else. Maybe Thalidomide kicked in last night hence a good night sleep. I wish everyone could meet up from here as I read so many post that mirror my life. Itās better to come here and post then FB.

My mum had a Hickman line as she had bad veins so it was easier to give her blood transfusions. I did suggest giving it a name as she had it so long, she wasnāt best pleased with my suggestion. She didnāt like that I called her zimmer frame Hans Zimmer after the composer. Maybe you could write a blog or set up an Instagram page so you could chart your journey while you are in hospital? It will help keep you occupied
Not sure whether I believe in anything beyond this life or just a blissful nothingness forever. No-one comes back to tell us! I increasingly wonder at how engaged everyone is with money and position and power. That does seem strange to me. I guess Iām a bit of an existentialist.
I watched a lot of UFO stuff and Brian Cox stuff. He proved we made of the same stuff as the stars. We are very limited what we understand but have the power to learn and absorb information. Yep money has ruined society, and most likely the reason why the UK is a mess.
